AD7714
Temperature Measurement
Another application area for the AD7714 is in temperature
measurement. Figure 13 outlines a connection from a thermo-
couple to the AD7714. In this application, the AD7714 is oper-
ated in its buffered mode to allow large decoupling capacitors
on the front end to eliminate any noise pickup which there may
have been in the thermocouple leads. When the AD7714 is
operated in buffered mode, it has a reduced common-mode
range. In order to place the differential voltage from the thermo-
couple on a suitable common-mode voltage, the AIN2 input of
the AD7714 is biased up at the reference voltage, +2.5 V.
